There’s not much news to report on the Colbert controversy since the Comedy Central host testified before the Immigration Subcommittee of the House of Representatives last week. However, there are two great analyses of the odd juxtaposition that deserve recognition. The first, written by a spokesperson for the organization Californians for Population Stabilization, is a trenchant critique of the greatly flawed guest worker programs whose expansion Mr. Colbert and his congressional sponsors endorse without reservation. The other op-ed is an incisive jab by Jonah Goldberg at the implications behind Colbert’s faux persona in the context of the immigration issue. Both are well worth reading.
